Celibacy can refer either to existence single or even to sexual abstinence. An oath of celibacy is a promise does'nt to enter into marriage. A select few writers like this usage of "celibacy", when others let it run interchangeably as a equivalent word for abstinence.

the few writers in gender draw the distinction between abstinence & celibacy, stating that celibacy means refraining from either any sexual activity using a partner. It argue that this may exist as empowering, when it however allows that human to be "sexual" (across, e.g., masturbation).

A term involuntary celibacy refers to lack of sexual intercourse for reasons other than (voluntary) abstinence, e.g. shyness / love-shyness.
